With the transmitter on, it’s now time to turn on the RangePro RPX8-P. While pulling down the battery
locking pin, press the battery into the rails far enough that the battery pin clears the battery transport mode
hole (see
on page 47). When that happens, release the pin. Continue pressing the battery until
the locking pin engages the battery flight mode hole, at which point the RangePro X8 will activate and
power up. The RangePro UAV will emit a series of beeps as part of the startup process:
– First sequence: Three rising beeps indicating power has been applied.
– Second sequence: Series of “diddley” beeps indicating unit has booted.
– Third sequence: Two falling beeps indicating no radio connection.
– Fourth sequence: Two rising beeps indicating radio connection.

After initial power up do not move the unit while the gyroscope is being calibrated. The side LEDs on the
GPS unit flash red and blue during the gyroscope calibration process. When the side LEDs start flashing
yellow it is okay to touch or move the unit.
